Bill,
You're the one that told me that story. Good stuff, thanks Buddy.
Dick,
You hit it on the head, the relationship Jim Hall and Bruce McLaren had was really the magic of the early Can Am.
As far as those days being over...They're not. That same theatre for raw innovation is still alive and well in this replica business. I was walking through the little corner of the Carlisle Fairgrounds where on about 3 acres, the Kit Car Industry was represented. I thought to myself, thank the Lord they haven't stopped this. In spite of all the rules and regulations and restrictions and whatever, we can still do this. We can still hand build a car that will sound just as awesome and give us the same thrill that Jim Hall and Bruce McLaren had. That is awesome.
